2 DAYS TO GO AND BABY IS HOME

Its been a week already since my wife was discharge from the hospital after she gave birth to our second baby girl. My wife has already discharge but my little baby has to stay in the nursery room for treatment. It is nothing serious but I don't want to take the risk of not treating her. Our pediatrician advised us that our baby has a high wbc or white blood cells, above the normal range. There are several reasons to it and these are:
  1. Mother might have Urinary Tract Infection during pregnancy.
  2. Mother has a pneumonia during pregnancy.
  3. Mother was seriously ill during pregnancy.
  4. Long labor in the delivery room.
These are just some of the reasons why our baby has an above average in her WBC. In this process, she  has to be administered antibiotics to normalize the wbc count of the baby.We have to let the baby stay in the nursery because of that.

Yesterday morning , we were already informed that our baby's wbc has already normalize and she will be discharge by Wednesday morning. After 4 days of treatment her wbc is already normal. But since the treatment must be for a week, we decided to complete it for the sake of the baby.

What they say is really true about pregnancy. Every pregnancy is unique from another. There is no pattern that is being followed. This is what I believed to be the wonder of life. I am just happy that she is safe and ready to go home. her sister Reese Arabella is already excited to see her younger sister.

THIS IT!

After 9 months of waiting, our second baby is now coming. I just admitted my wife at Davao Doctors Hospital around 7:30 pm tonight. I was hoping that she will deliver our second baby girl earlier but the progress is still at 3 cm. According to our Ob-Gyne, she can already touch the baby's head with her fingers and she told my wife that she must be admitted. I guess I have to wait for tomorrow for the baby to come out. I am just blogging at the nearest net cafe. 

On the way to the hospital, me and my wife were arguing on what name shall we give to our baby. It's really funny because until now, we still can't meet halfway in the name portion of the program. Anyway, I just have to wait till tomorrow. 

It's my second baby but I still learned new knowledge in this second baby. There are 3 signs before a woman will give birth and these are:
  1. Bleeding.
  2. Water discharge.
  3. Pains in the back and tummy area.
These signs of giving birth are very important because these will indicate that a woman is about to give birth already. It is very important for a mother to do the following so that she will not have problems in giving birth.
  • Walking every morning. It is advisable that a pregnant woman should do 30 minutes to 1 hour walking every morning.
  • Breathing exercise would also help a pregnant woman in pushing the baby out.
  • Drink plenty of water. 1 - 2 liters a day.
  • Avoid eating salty and sweet foods. 
I am very excited of the new baby. We already bought these things that the baby will be using when she arrives home. Few hours to go and home we will go.
